Back on Chemo

Carmen wants everyone to know that she is not bedridden or anything like that. Here we see her in good spirits as she prepares for a blood transfusion on February 3.

This week she started chemo, so that's what she's keeping in the purse there. She also has daily radiation, but neither one is causing her discomfort at this time.

Even though Carmen has lost weight, she does has an appetite. So you are encouraged to push doughnuts and cheeseburgers at her ;-)

Hi Carmen, thinking about you EVERY day and wishing I were there to see you. The purse with chemo application is a cool way to go, girlfriend. Here I thought you were just hiding your cell phone. By the way, I am coming home in March, so you have to let me come over, ok, girlfriend?!!! Love you!!!!! xoxo
